Our prince is a tough guy who doesn't talk much.
In the end, the call ended because Lin Mo's contactor could no longer support it. But what Lin Mo was concerned about now was not this, but the people around his second brother.
Lin Mo watched Cheng Yan put down the communicator with eager eyes, wanting to ask if the person who had just spoken to him and now seemed to be staying with his second brother was his shadow guard like Ying Er and the others.
"What's wrong?" Cheng Yan asked after everyone else left and went back to their rooms to rest.
"Was the person who just spoke to you also your shadow guard?" Lin Mo had some anticipation in his eyes.
"Yes, with Yingyi by my second brother's side, nothing will happen." Cheng Yan said as he held the person in his arms.
Yingyi just told him the general situation, and Cheng Yan also understood it.
Ying Yi suddenly appeared in the apocalypse and met Lin Mo's second brother Lin Moxiu by chance.
Because Lin Moxiu looked similar to the second son of the Lin family, whom his master had specifically asked him to pay attention to, and because Ying Yi was unfamiliar with this world, he followed Lin Moxiu.
Yingyi had a hunch that he could find the master through this person, and in the end, it happened as he wished.
After receiving the news from his master, Ying Yi finally relaxed a little. All he had to do now was to protect Lin Moxiu and wait for his master and his men to come back. Then he could return to his master.
I just don’t know where Ying Si is now.
"Ying, Cheng Yan is your master?" Lin Moxiu tightened his hand holding the connector and looked at the man beside him with deep eyes.
"Yeah." Ying responded, his eyes softened a little, but still looked cold.
Lin Moxiu was used to this man being indifferent to the things around him, but it was the first time he saw Ying talk so much at once.
"Really... My brother has his protection, so he should be safe." Lin Moxiu lowered his head and wiped the blood off the dagger, saying casually.
Lin Moxiu didn't care who they were, nor did he want to delve into why people who didn't exist in their previous life appeared. As long as they didn't endanger his brother's life, it was fine.
"Let's go and find some supplies. I want to find my brother, and you want to find your master, so we're going the same way." Lin Moxiu put away the clean dagger, turned around and left.
Yingyi said nothing and walked half a step behind him.
After the two men left, black mist suddenly appeared around the few people who had already died, slowly sticking to their skin and clothes, and then began to corrode them until they turned into a pool of black water.
Lin Moxiu stretched out his right hand, facing the dazzling sun, the corners of his mouth raised uncontrollably, and the darkness in his eyes was bitingly cold.
This is just the first step. Wait and see, who is faster in my revenge or in your pace of ending the apocalypse?
Yingyi felt the chill and malice surrounding Lin Moxiu, and her heart was slightly disturbed, but she quickly calmed down.
Yingyi remembered the scene when he first met Lin Moxiu. At that time, Lin Moxiu was unfortunately pushed in front of a zombie to protect that person from danger.
Because Lin Moxiu's face looked exactly like Lin Xiu, the second son of the Lin family, Ying Yi instinctively rescued him.
Although Lin Moxiu was treated like this at the time, perhaps because of his self-cultivation, he could not curse even though his eyes were full of anger. He just left with a cold face.
However, on the fifth day, Ying Yi clearly felt that Lin Moxiu had changed a lot. His bright and tough eyes were replaced by dead silence and fierceness, and the gentle smile on his face was no longer there.
After a short rest, he found the group of people who had bullied him before and slowly tortured them to death. The method was comparable to the punishment room in their Shadow Guard training camp.
Because he had read a book about strange things before, Yingyi had suspected that Lin Moxiu's soul had been replaced. However, since they had no relationship and he could not find any evidence, Yingyi did not care about it anymore.
It was not until the phone call just now and seeing his smile that Ying Yi was sure that Lin Moxiu was still the same Lin Moxiu.
And from what his master meant, Yingyi also confirmed that Lin Moxiu was the second brother of their future king's husband, so he had to protect this man.
Yingyi glanced at the man's thin back, then retracted his gaze and continued to be alert of his surroundings. He would be able to return to his master soon, so it would not matter if he waited a few more days.
After sending Lin Mo back to his room to rest, Cheng Yan went to Noah's room and picked him up to go to Old Yan.
"What are you going to do? My energy hasn't been completely converted yet." Noah let him carry him away. Anyway, he couldn't feel the suffocation from being strangled.
"Talk to them about cooperation, and I'll bring you some more fragments."
"Hmm? Are you sure?" Noah looked up at Cheng Yan after hearing what interested him.
"Of course."
When Cheng Yan came back, Lin Mo was already a little drowsy. Living in the end times, and with the shadow of the previous two weeks, Lin Mo always had trouble sleeping and would wake up two or three times a night.
Cheng Yan locked the door, picked up Lin Mo and entered the Dragon Jade Space. As if sensing the tranquility of the space and who was holding him, Lin Mo slowly fell into a deep sleep.
Cheng Yan put Lin Mo on the jade bed and sat beside him, crossing his legs and closing his eyes to practice the Dragon Transformation Technique in his mind.
The first step in practicing the Dragon Transformation Technique is to absorb as much spiritual energy as possible, so that the body is filled with spiritual energy and the body is transformed from the inside out.
This phase is divided into three levels.
The second step is to temper the spirit, which is what the Hualong Jue calls tempering the sea of consciousness. The degree to which the sea of consciousness is tempered is mysterious, and only the person who has reached that level can understand it.
The third step is to start transforming into a dragon, but many people fail at this step. And after cultivating to this level and transforming into a dragon, you must successfully cultivate to the next level, otherwise you will never be able to transform into a human.
When Cheng Yan woke up from his training state, Lin Mo was no longer by his side.
Cheng Yan got off the jade bed and stretched his stiff body as he walked out.
Previously, Cheng Yan built a simple bamboo house and a small earthen stove for Lin Mo in the spiritual field.
There were many and varied things in the space, and Cheng Yan put all the useful things into the space. Among them was a set of bowls and chopsticks that he thought looked good, so he gave it to Lin Mo, as it was just what he needed now.
When Cheng Yan walked over, Lin Mo was just making breakfast. There was rice, some bacon, and Lin Mo also dug up some sweet potatoes and added them to make porridge.
"What time is it?"
"I just went out to check, it's still dark. How's your training going?" Lin Mo asked, looking up at him while stirring the sweet potato porridge in the casserole.
In Lin Mo's opinion, if someone as weak as him could break through the first level in one go, Cheng Yan must be able to break through the third level at least if he is so powerful.
"Not bad." Cheng Yan squatted beside him to help.
The spiritual power in the body has reached one tenth, which is within Cheng Yan's expectations. Accumulating spiritual power is a long and boring road, which takes a long time, and many people can't persist at the first step.
After making breakfast, Lin Mo and Cheng Yan sat aside and ate while chatting.
"What does Momo want to do after meeting up with his second brother and going to Beijing to find his eldest brother and the others?" Cheng Yan stirred the sweet potato porridge in the bowl and took a sip.
"Ah? I don't know... I'll find my brother and parents and maybe live with them. My eldest brother is a soldier, so the base will definitely let him stay in Shangjing."
Besides, the Lin family's roots were in Shangjing. Apart from there, Lin Mo couldn't think of where else they would go.
"You just want to be with your family?" Cheng Yan paused when he heard Lin Mo's words.
These are in line with Lin Mo's current vision of his future life. If Cheng Yan didn't know about Lin Mo's experiences, he might also follow Lin Mo's wishes and live with him in Shangjing.
But there is no if. After Cheng Yan accompanied Lin Mo to find them, it was impossible for him to let the Lin family continue to stay in Shangjing.
"No... I still want to practice with you. Don't forget that my dream is to become a great hero of mankind. How can I do that without practicing hard?" Lin Mo said with a smile.
A hero of mankind...
What a great and naive dream.
Cheng Yan looked at the light in Lin Mo's eyes, and his heart sank.
"Mo Mo, what if..." Cheng Yan saw the innocence on his face and finally couldn't help but speak.
"What?"
"If your title of hero means that the end of the world is premature, and that you are tortured and your family is torn apart, then what will be your choice?"
Cheng Yan finally asked. He wanted his boy to be protected from filth, but he also didn't want Lin Mo to show his vulnerable side when he really faced these things.
Just as he wanted Lin Mo to have the ability to protect himself, he asked Qinglong to give Lin Mo a cultivation technique that he could practice, and mentioned that he would let him kill zombies to practice on the way.
Cheng Yan protected his boy, but he did not keep him in a greenhouse.
"There's no need to choose, it must be family." Lin Mo said with a smile.
After he finished speaking, Lin Mo's smile gradually faded until it disappeared.
"Whatever the term 'saint' means, if you want to be a great hero of mankind, you must put your family first."
Lin Mo is kind, but kindness is not the Virgin Mary or the Holy Father. If he has to choose between humans and his family, he will choose his family without hesitation.
Lin Mo is very selfish. He cannot sacrifice his own family for the sake of everyone else.
From childhood to adulthood, no matter it was his parents or his older brothers, everyone loved him very much.
And Lin Mo can say with certainty that if the four of them were asked to make a choice, they would definitely choose their family.
"You are very similar to me." Cheng Yan stroked the corner of his eye and sighed.
The Lin family is very similar to the three Cheng Yan brothers.
Cheng Yan's brother, the emperor, wanted to protect his two younger brothers and his maternal grandfather's family, and finally seized the throne. The blood on his hands included that of his brothers and officials in the court.
As for Cheng Yan, he went to the border alone when he was still young, and climbed up from a small soldier to the highest position, and the blood on his hands could never be washed clean.
It is said that Cheng Yan is the god of war and patron saint of Yu State, but in fact he is not.
He did all this just to give his brother an extra bargaining chip in his bid for the throne, and to give him more confidence in removing corrupt officials when he became emperor.
"Dad and brother must have chosen the same." After hearing what Cheng Yan said, Lin Mo regained his happy look and said with pride.
"Then work hard at cultivation. No matter what conspiracy it is, in front of powerful strength, everything is just a paper tiger."
"Pfft... Why do I feel like everything you said before was just a prelude to this?" Lin Mo couldn't help laughing.
"You think too much."
"Cheng Yan, why do I always feel that you are quiet and powerful in front of other people, but like an old mother in front of me? What a difference in treatment..."
"Hmm?" Cheng Yan raised his eyes slightly.
"But... I like it!" Lin Mo threw himself into his arms, his eyebrows slightly curved.
“Your character is very consistent with the image of a cruel and ruthless prince… Hahaha…” Lin Mo covered his mouth and laughed, his body shaking with laughter.
Lin Mo didn't know how he came up with this idea, but having a shadow guard by his side did fit the description of the cold-blooded prince falling in love with me novel that Lin Mo had read in his early years.
Cheng Yan, who was holding Lin Mo, heard this and his face froze for a few seconds. This was indeed consistent with his past self, but why did it feel a little wrong when Lin Mo said it?
"However, Cheng Yan, you seem to have never told me the situation at your home, except for your name and the people around you." Lin Mo thought of this question, looked up at him and said.
"This..." Cheng Yan paused.
"Is there any reason you can't tell me?" Lin Mo seemed to know his hesitation and asked.
"I'll talk to my two brothers and parents later."
"Is this possible... eh? No, why are you shouting like that? It's only been a few days since we confirmed our relationship..." Lin Mo's ears felt a little hot.
Isn't it so easy to call mom, dad and brother?
"Hmm? You're already a fiancé." Cheng Yan's lips couldn't help but rise slightly, and the warmth in his eyes slowly spread.
Cheng Yan is very satisfied with his and Lin Mo's current status. After finding the person, they quickly confirmed their relationship as husband and wife, although they are still unmarried now.
After going to the capital, they had to explain their relationship before Lin Mo's family found out. As for the test, Cheng Yan felt that he could pass any test as long as it didn't require him to leave Lin Mo.
